License requirements: nx_mcd_core (“MECHATRONICS CONCEPT DESIGNER”)
Offset¶
-
PointOnCurveJointBuilder.Offset¶ Returns the offset specifies the “Zero Point” on the curve whose distance to the point along the curve is the offset value.
Zero Point is on the opposite direction of the axis with respect to the point on the curve.

Method Detail¶
EvaluatePath¶
-
PointOnCurveJointBuilder.EvaluatePath¶ Evaluate the path.
If there is no path, create it, otherwise evaluate it.
Signature
EvaluatePath(curves)Parameters: curves (list of NXOpen.NXObject) – curve or edgeNew in version NX9.0.0.
License requirements: nx_mcd_core (“MECHATRONICS CONCEPT DESIGNER”)
GetConnectedCurves¶
-
PointOnCurveJointBuilder.GetConnectedCurves¶ Get the connected curves which the attachment will move along
Signature
GetConnectedCurves()Returns: curve or edge Return type: list of NXOpen.NXObjectNew in version NX9.0.0.
License requirements: nx_mcd_core (“MECHATRONICS CONCEPT DESIGNER”)
SetConnectedCurves¶
-
PointOnCurveJointBuilder.SetConnectedCurves¶ Set the connected curves which the attachment will move along
Signature
SetConnectedCurves(curves)Parameters: curves (list of NXOpen.NXObject) – curve or edgeNew in version NX9.0.0.

Validate¶
-
PointOnCurveJointBuilder.Validate¶ Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.
If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven’t set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.
Signature
Validate()Returns: Was self validation successful Return type: bool New in version NX3.0.1.
License requirements: None.
